Another Nail


Disney is "celebrating" the 80th anniversary of Winnie the Pooh by giving Christopher Robin the sack in favour of a "tomboyish" six-year girl wearing a bicycle helmet and undoubtedly sporting a thick American accent.

That loud thwacking sound you hear is my forehead connecting repeatedly with the desktop.

Update: James Lileks weighs in on the issue. Frankly, I think he's a bit remiss letting his daughter watch these sort of cartoons at all. In our house, I make it a point of having my four-year old girl watch the Terminator films instead.

She's got to know what she's up against.

And with the colours turned all the way up to fever dream intensity. Nice...
